I just tried sending a test message to myself on my BBS (it was a local message, so wouldn't have any network tag lines etc.), then replied to it, and I was able to quote the whole message.  I didn't see any missing lines.  As I've been unable to reproduce this issue (at least, from my understanding), I'm not sure what's happening there.

I also haven't heard about this issue from anyone else.  Could there be something locally on that BBS that may be causing this issue?  I can't think of what might do that, but as I can't reproduce it (and haven't heard about it from anyone else), I'm at a bit of a loss.
